Twins Marcus and Maurice Taylor, both 31, were arrested Dec. 7 at 1412 Dorgan St. in Jackson, authorities said. Lebrian Myers, 22, was arrested the same day during a traffic stop on Gluckstadt Road in Madison County.

The three men are accused of burglarizing an Ackerman pharmacy, authorities said. The Taylors and Myers each face one count of burglary of a commercial business.

Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics agents seized nearly 6,500 dosage units of narcotics, six marijuana plants, 30 grams of processes marijuana and a Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) laced Popsicle at a home in Hinds County.

"The No. 1 drug abuse problem in Mississippi is no longer marijuana or cocaine," said MBN Director Marshall Fisher. "The biggest threat is pharmaceutical drug abuse, and as a direct result, organized groups are focusing on pharmacy burglaries, which have become a major problem not only in Mississippi but in many other states, as well."

The investigation is ongoing and additional charges are pending review by a Choctaw County grand jury, an MBN official said.

Bond has been set at $1 million for each of the men, who are being held at the Choctaw County Detention Center.
